The light blue books are written in block letters, and the antique color has gone through a hundred years of time, and the books are still intact.

As always, he opened the book, and the third article of "Miscellaneous Notes of Mountains and Seas" was weird, turning to the one he had watched last night about the burial of a Taoist priest when he died, with the yellow paper turning slightly, Lin Yu's fingertips moved lightly, and his long eyebrows suddenly wrinkled together.

"Missing a page?"

Lin Yu groaned slightly, his brows couldn't help frowning, he looked at the slight traces of tearing in the mezzanine of the book, the traces were very new, they should have been torn in the past few days, Lin Yu frowned, which means that during the time he went to Niulan Mountain, someone had turned the book, and tore off one of the pages, the content of the funeral ceremony.

On the clear facial features, there is a trace of doubt, there are many strong people in the Lin family, and there are people patrolling the mansion every night and the servants, and it is impossible for ordinary people to enter, which means that the people who tear up the content of the Taoist priest's burial in this chapter of the mountain and sea miscellaneous records are their own family, but who is tearing it up for what?

"Childe, it's time for dinner, Madame invites you to come over for dinner. ”

Xiaobai tiptoed into the room, came to the desk, and said in a crisp and soft voice.

Lin Yu glanced up at him, a soft smile appeared on his face and asked, "Xiaobai, let me ask you, who has entered my brother's room in the past few days since I left?"

Xiao Bai looked at Lin Yu with some suspicion, and under the latter's gaze, he said slowly: "Childe, Madame has a life, no one except you is allowed to enter Young Master Lin Tian's house without permission, in the courtyard of the eldest prince, there have always been thirteen guards waiting for the shadow, and ordinary people can't approach it at all, Xiao Bai can enter the house because Childe is there." ”

"Shadow Thirteen?"

Lin Yu was slightly surprised, this so-called Shadow Thirteen Guards is composed of some children with excellent roots and bones selected by Lin Tiannan since childhood, in order to create this so-called Shadow Thirteen Guards, Lin Tiannan can be said to have spent a lot of effort, Lin Yu heard that there were more than 100 children who were originally selected, and then after some training, there were only thirteen left, and these thirteen can be described as the elite of the elite.

When he was six years old, he was selected, and after two years of training, ten died, Lin Yu didn't know what kind of training it was, and he could train people to the point of death! After two years of laying the foundation, three years of exile, and entering the mountain to be the companion of insects, wolves, tigers and leopards, Lin Yu had just entered Niulan Mountain not long ago, and knew that it was terrible there, and he was already eighteen martial artists and almost couldn't come back when he entered Niulan Mountain, let alone a group of children about eight years old? Three years later, more than eighty children died in the mountain, and only thirteen children were left who came out of Niulan Mountain, which is now the Shadow Thirteen Guards, who were called "the sword of death" by Lin Tiannan!"

Lin Yu slowly exhaled a breath of turbidity, and said in a voice mixed with a trace of inexplicable emotion: "No matter which one of the Shadow Thirteen Guards is here, please come out and see it, Lin Yu has something to ask." ”

This demon king, the second son of the Lin family, who is not afraid of heaven and earth, actually became humble in the face of his father's subordinates, which is surprising. Actually, Lin Yu also has his own helplessness, this shadow thirteen guards are his father's subordinates, it stands to reason that they should respect him very much as the young master, but in fact, otherwise, they only respect Lin Tiannan, without Lin Tiannan, Lin Yu directly chose to ignore it in front of them like a passerby.

As soon as Lin Yu's words fell, a gust of wind blew outside the room, the candle flame on the desk was extinguished and swaying, and in the corner of the gap, a shadow in a black robe quietly appeared in the room, the one-piece hat of the black robe covered his face, and the trace of murder on his body made people feel frightened.

"Dare to ask, which of the Thirteen Shadow Guards is Your Excellency?"

Lin Yu squirmed the corners of his mouth, and he could feel the murderous aura emanating from the black-robed man in the opposite corner, which was formed, and formed an invisible killing power.

The name of the first nine is Lin Tiannan according to the Taoist nine-character mantra of the soldier's arrangement, and the three names of "Jue, Zheng, Jing," originate from the three treasures of Buddhism, the Buddha treasure is the self-surname Jue, the magic weapon is the positive self-surname, and the monk treasure is the net surname of the net, and the name Lin Tiannan is to warn the Shadow Thirteen Guards to be self-disciplined at all times, not to do evil things, but also to remind himself of the righteousness.

As for Lie's name, there is no special meaning, the reason why he is unique among the Shadow Thirteen Guards is because he is the leader of the Shadow Thirteen Guards, and he is also the strongest, as for how strong it is, Lin Yu doesn't know, because Lin Yu has not had much contact with them, and Lin Yu has seen the Shadow Thirteen Guards less than five times over the years.

"Pro ......"

The corner of the gap was dark, and the man under the black robe said in a cold voice.

Lin Yu raised his eyebrows, picked lightly, and asked thoughtfully: "Lin, have anyone else but me entered this room for you in the past few days?"

"No ......"

Without any hesitation, the black-robed man replied in a stiff but affirmative tone.

"Oh......"

Lin Yu looked down at the light flashing in his eyes, thoughtful. When he raised his head, he found that the black-robed man in the opposite corner had already disappeared, and he couldn't help but be stunned for a while and said with a bitter smile: "This guy came and went in a hurry, and he didn't even say hello, he really didn't take me, the young master, in his eyes." ”

Xiao Bai on the side, hearing this, showed a smile on his fair face, comforted Lin Yu and said, "Young master, don't care too much, the Shadow Thirteen Guards have always been so cold." ”

Lin Yu shrugged his shoulders when he heard this, looking at the torn page marks in front of him, Lin Yu couldn't help but sigh, the light in his eyes flashed, he sighed slightly and said, "Let's go......!"

The lights went out, the room fell into darkness again, and a figure jumped down from the window under the darkness, and under the black robe, the cold and stiff face like a machine gently stirred the book in front of him, frowned slightly, and in an instant the black shadow disappeared again.

The bright hall, the candle flame with the lampshade on the lampstand, emitting a bright light, the round square wooden table in the room has four dishes of side dishes, three vegetarian and one meat, Lin Yu, who is sitting on the log chair, said hello to Zhou Yihan and Lin Tiannan: "Father, mother." ”

"Yu'er is here, I haven't seen you for a few days, I heard that you are out of the customs, so I asked Xiaobai to call you, don't bother Yu'er's affairs, right?" Zhou Yihan's face was slightly haggard, she had been immersed in the pain of losing her son for a while, and some wrinkles were added to her forehead unconsciously, and when she saw Lin Yu coming over, there was a hint of a smile on her face, and her haggard expression also got a hint of stretch, she stood up and helped Lin Yu with a bowl.

"Mother, I'll do just that. ”

Lin Yu looked at Zhou Yihan's appearance, felt a little guilty, and was about to take the dishes and chopsticks in Zhou Yihan's hand, but Zhou Yihan was unwilling, so he had to serve Lin Yu a good meal and put it in front of his table.

Lin Yu's heart, a soft place was inadvertently touched, his eyes were a little sour, no matter when and where something happened, your parents will always be the one who loves you the most, and the one who is most willing to tolerate you, which will not change regardless of the vicissitudes of time.

Lin Tiannan didn't speak, he has always been serious, he is very tolerant of various emotions, he eats food by himself, and between his gestures, the majesty still exists, and the power raised by him in a high position is called official authority in the officialdom.

"The day after tomorrow is Qingming, and it is also the son of our Lin family to worship their ancestors, when the time comes, your father will take the lead in worshipping in the ancestral hall, and your brother will not be able to go to the funeral, you see ......" Zhou Yihan looked at Lin Yu and stopped, she remembered Lin Yu's sad appearance last time, but this time the words came to her mouth but she didn't dare to say it easily.

Lin Yu is smart, this is understandable, he understands Zhou Yihan's worries, and he also knows what Zhou Yihan wants to say, the corners of his handsome mouth show a slight arc, and he said lightly: "I don't have anything to do the day after tomorrow, the ancestor worship will be the same whether I go or not, and when the time comes, I will accompany my mother to see off my brother." ”

Zhou Yihan's delicate body shook slightly, looking at the calm face of the young man opposite, she couldn't help but feel a heart-warming pain, her youngest son learned to disguise, disguise his emotions, he grew up, learned to hide himself, and he will also face the responsibility that growth brings him.

Lin Tiannan wiped the corners of his mouth, and said in his voice without a trace of emotion: "Tomorrow night, you will go to the mourning hall to keep a ...... in place of your mother" Without waiting for Lin Yu to answer, Lin Tiannan got up and walked into his study.

Lin Yu showed a wry smile, his father was really domineering, he had to say what he said, without giving people a trace of room for maneuver. Zhou Yihan looked at Lin Yu's bitter face, and said softly: "Yu'er, it's okay, if you don't want to go, you don't have to go, my mother has survived so many days, and it's not bad for the last day." She knew her son's knot, and she also knew that her husband wanted Lin Yu to untie the knot, but Zhou Yihan was soft-hearted after all, on the one hand, he hoped that Lin Yu could untie the knot, after all, no one could change what had happened, everyone had to move forward, and, on the other hand, Zhou Yihan didn't want Lin Yu to embarrass himself.

"Hoo ......"

Lin Yu let out a deep breath, a subtle evil smile was outlined at the corner of his mouth, he stretched lazily, touched his stomach and muttered, "I'm full, mother, I'll go back first." ”

"Well, let's go back when you're full! Rest early......"

Zhou Yihan was a little disappointed in his heart, not answering means that he can't let go, the eldest son is dead, the second son is living in deep self-blame, Zhou Yihan can't help but feel bitter, sad for her two sons, the tears in her eyes are falling, in order not to let his sobbing sound be heard by Lin Yu, arousing the pain in his heart, Zhou Yihan covered his mouth and didn't let the sobbing sound come out, and finally the sobbing became a stalk.

"Mother, listen to your father, I will guard the spirit of the day after tomorrow for my brother! He is the head of the family, mother, don't challenge the authority, otherwise your father's face will be dark, and he will divorce you again, and you will not be able to find a place to cry. The moonlight was cool, the young man outside the door held his head, one foot bent and kicked the door frame, his body lazily leaned in front of the wood, forming a subtle arc, the corners of his mouth rose with a shallow smile, the young man was warmly wrapped in the bright moonlight, and closed his eyes comfortably.

Zhou Yihan burst into laughter, looked at the young man's back with red eyes, his tone was mixed with a little relief, and muttered in a low voice: "Stinky boy......";
